Tue, 28 Aug 2018 08:01:45 +0000CPUugrgnc3220@/discussionsHi,
I want to read the CPU temperature with WMI. but I get a NotSupportedException. I think that the up-board don't support WMI. I did try to read directly but I need a specific driver for it.
How can I read CPU temperature ? is there any driver for it?

I´m using Win10 with the passive cooled UP Squared, the approx. temperature, when just having e.g. a Windows Update, is ~80-90°C.
Is there anyone else whose faced this problem, or is there known a solution?
Thanks in forward, Greetings, Sebastian]]>

I installed Win10 on my UpSquared, when just running the Win10 Updates, the temperature goes up to ~80-90°C, also had 95°C. I´m not using an active cooler, I got the passive one.
Has anybody else these problems? Or does someone know a solution?

[SOLVED] Disappointment with the N4200's decoding capabilities / YouTubehttps://forum.up-community.org/discussion/1832/solved-disappointment-with-the-n4200s-decoding-capabilities-youtube

Most 4K videos on YouTube are VP9 encoded.
Not all 4K videos on YouTube are also x264 encoded.

The Up Square with Pentium N4200 gets destroyed by VP9 encoded 4K videos, dropping about 30 % of frames.

So one has to use x264 (for example by simply using Edge), then 0 frames dropped. But I discovered some times ago that not all 4K videos are also encoded by YouTube in x264 and I fear only the old one work.

Theoretically, the N4200 is also optimized for VP8 decoding, but I don't know of any trick to force a browser to Stream in VP8, and I have no ideas how many 4K videos of YouTube are still available in this format.

Thank God for x264, but unfortunately I fear Google expressely limits 4K videos in x264 to promote its own VP9.

SOLUTION:

- Since the latest major update of Windows 10 : Creators update, Microsoft Edge does indeed support the vp9 codec
- Microsoft Edge drops 0 frame in 4K on YouTube, contrary to Chrome, which drops so many frames it is unuseable.
So kudos to MSFT, and if you want to Watch 4K videos, do use Edge !
(can't unfortunately Watch the cpu usage in task manager, since when I switch to it, video goe from full screen back to standard YouTube view.)
